Description

We are preparing for our annual silent auction fundraiser that is held during the Kick-off Carnival for the annual Summer Reading Program to be held at the Huntington Beach Central Library branch on Saturday, June 22, 2024. Last year close to 3,000 people attended the event. The silent auction relies solely on the generosity of businesses like yours that donate the items up for bid.

 

Your donation of gift cards, products or complimentary admission tickets/vouchers for our event’s silent auction will help us raise funds for children’s services and events. 100% of the proceeds from this event will be used for the Children’s Library.

 

In addition to a wonderful collection of books, the Children’s Library also provides many services that encourage raising readers. Last year:

·       Over 13,000 readers participated in Summer Reading, In-N-Out and other reading challenges

·       Number of books checked out from Children & Young Adult collections – 496,133 books

·       “Best Story Telling Time in Orange County” for the second year in a row from Parenting OC Reader’s Choice Awards
